Dear Under Armour Talent Acquisition,

Over the past several years, I have developed a keen interest in pursuing a Product

Development role at Under Armour. Catalyzed by my work experience and staunch passion

for UA products, I believe that this position would be an ideal opportunity for me to cultivate

a thorough understanding of the company’s product strategy. As Under Armour continues to

transcend the limits of innovation across all of its categories, I would be able see that growth

first-hand as an Assistant Product Line Manager (APLM). Additionally, the company’s

constant pursuit of innovation, its energetic and collaborative work environment, and its

commitment to the competitive athlete inspire me. I have developed relationships with

Under Armour teammates ______ and ______, and their stories and zeal for

the company have clinched my interest of working at Tide Point.

From my academic and occupational backgrounds, I will bring relevant analytical

skills to the APLM position at Under Armour. As an Associate for the _______,

I led the investment of almost $2 million in three portfolio companies. While there, I

developed a strong knowledge for the entire Microsoft Office Suite, as I required its

________ Economics Department as a Research Associate.

In addition, having served as an Equipment Manager for the __________ football team,

I have developed a very keen understanding of the UA product line. Working with athletes

from several sports including Football, Basketball, Baseball, and Soccer, I will be able to

utilize that knowledge gained in order to engineer Under Armour products to the

specifications of athletes everywhere.

From an interpersonal perspective, I will bring the necessary attributes to work every

day. Having worked for a Division-1 college football program for three years, I learned

to work in a fast-paced environment that cherished the efficacy of collaboration- a

mentality that is crucial for an effective career at UA. More importantly, as a tutor for

__________ student-athletes, I discovered the value of effective communication

from my experiences with a diverse group of people, which will prove vital as an

intermediary between consumers throughout the world and the Development teams in

Baltimore.

Simply put, I am ready to make an impact at Under Armour. I understand how to work under

pressure and be resourceful, and I know that both my occupational backgrounds and my

work ethic will contribute immensely to the UA family. In return, an Assistant Product Line

Manager role at Under Armour will provide me the chance to provide athletes utility through

sportswear as well as hopefully launch a long, successful career at Under Armour. Thank you
